For my first Product review I’m going to go into a HUGE topic that is consistently debatable as far as “The Best Food” whats best for one may not work for another so please keep that in mind in the grand scheme of things. However when your talking Kibble, Wet food, or Raw (which can break down to several other options) in general my personal belief and experience has lead me to place Raw Pet Food at the very top of this list. Now please keep in mind I am not a nutritionist or a vet...I’m much worse I’m a concern parent who only wants the best for her babies. I want to know what’ going in them and what they get from their foods and treats.

Please keep in mind raw food does not necessarily mean you go out to your local grocery store and feed whatever your cooking tonight and giving your dog a slab of it raw... although some pet parents, with the help of their vet and the knowledge of whats safe and nutritionally sound for their pet might but I do not recommend that option for the average person, and honestly I don't even recommend that option for myself...its more work than is needed especially when there are so many pre-made balanced diets out there. Raw comes in a few different varieties from Frozen, Freeze-dried, Dehydrated, etc. I buy both Frozen for my dog (Jack Murdoc) and Freeze-dried for my cats (Winston, Ming, and Kasey.) Why do I buy two different types? Jack is a 50 pound Bulldog who if I fed freeze-dried I’d go through a bag within a few days and for most dogs 30 pounds or more I’d suggest going with frozen just purely for expenses. With my cats I can purchase 4 bags at a time and not have them go bad and it usually last me 2 months.

All types require a bit of work or planning on our part as the pet parent, however all types can be modified to work with any lifestyle. The frozen (depending on your dog) could be fed frozen especially on hot days...it would provide as more of a chew and take a bit longer which again could work for your dog especially if they gulp everything down without chewing. Jack, my dog prefers his thawed, he has a very pronounced under bite (to put it nicely) and I think you’ll find for most dogs thawed or mostly thawed is best. Who has the time to wait for it to thaw? you can’t microwave it cause that will just counter act the whole reason raw is so great (I will address this later) and all other methods take time. For me I use containers as I feed one feeding I clean it out and put the next feeding in and place it in the fridge, I do 2 feedings a day depending on the thickness of the nuggets/patties I may need a few more containers to rotate in between but all the time required is to clean it out with a bit of soap and pull out another from the freezer. Freeze-dried and dehydrated foods need to be prepared usually just with a little water and a few minutes to absorb.

As a side note most people don't realize that cats have drinking problems...I know i didn’t know that...but its not what your thinking. Cats are obligate carnivores meaning in the wild they get all their food by hunting and killing their prey, which means all their vitamins, nutrients and most of their hydration comes from its prey. Your probably thinking but wait I see my cat drinking from its water dish all the time, and while that's probably true, the truth of the matter is a cat cannot get nearly the amount of water a dog can get merely through drinking and lapping water. It all comes down to their tongues. So while feeding your cat kibble has probably been ok for many years (decades in fact for some) as time and knowledge of better understanding cats and their anatomy its not the optimal food choice in our markets today. And I’m sure many of you are saying “Lucky for me I feed my cat can food” which is better for your cats hydration by far when compared to kibble.

What it all comes down to with why Raw is so radical is ultimately what you get out of it. Maybe that isn't enough to hear just that so let me break it all down for you. When you feed kibble (a cup to a few cups a day) your dog absorbs at best (let me repeat that... at best) 70% the vitamins and nutrients from its kibble, the US pet food standards (AAFCO aka The Association of American Feed Control Officials require all pet foods to be “complete and balanced” but let me tell you there is a huge difference between Old Roy and Canidae... however the AAFCO probably couldn't tell you that.) are not in my opinion as high as they ought to be... but neither is our education system so like the education system we need to be good parents and do all we can to find the right fit for our kids...the same goes for our pets nutrition. Kibble will take all the the ingredients, some by the way sound pretty amazing too, and then cook the crap out of all of it to make it into a crunchy nugget, a process called extrusion (minus a few new comers like Lotus who bakes theirs like a dog biscuit is made, which explains why dogs love it so much.) Once the extrusion process is complete the vitamins and minerals that were naturally in the food which were cooked off are then many times synthetically reapplied by mixing it in a liquid form of fat and then spraying it back on the kibble...light bulb...that's why the kibble bags always feel so greasy...eww. Ok so whats all this mean, while your dog is absorbing the vitamins and nutrients mainly from its now sprayed in fatty layer all that other stuff ...well its shit...literally. Ever wonder why or how your dogs poop is so big? While in the moment kibble may seem like the best bang for your buck your paying to feed more and pick up more waste in the long run. Maybe its time to consider a better alternative.

Finally we are here...Why raw? With Raw Pet foods through the AAFCO again yes they are complete and balanced (as long as they are not just a supplement or treat there are some out there that are meant to just add some meat or vegetable matter in so please read the labels, they do legally have to state it.) While its true nothing is cooked, which is why its “Raw” so it does come with a side of slight warning, while dogs and cats are built different to withstand higher levels of bacteria, humans are not so caution: please be sure to wash your hands thoroughly after handling any raw product. With raw none of the natural vitamins and minerals are cooked out and with it being 60-70% moisture loaded (YAY for the kitties out there eating raw!) So while your out buying food and you see the price tag of raw verses that of kibble remember the big stinky poop we discussed now imagine half if not less than that as your out come (haha pun intended) no shit...ok ok I think I’ve gotten it all out of me (haha) honestly its one of the best perks along with way less gas (and having a bulldog that's super important to me!) What else is raw so good at...glad you asked! Besides being so highly digestible/absorb-able and being biologically appropriate (excuse me but do you see wild dogs and cats eating kibble ...besides the ones closed to the little old lady with all the cats?) Raw is typically more limited ingredient and over all better for your pet if they have allergies, again bulldogs are typical for having allergies and while Jacks not allergic to anything yet (knock on wood) he is very sensitive to yeast and will get ear infections from kibble all the time, even when its a high end supplement with brewers yeast in it. Raw does wonders with their skin, coat and teeth which means less money over all with dental problems and oh yes not to mention less shedding! Increase in energy thanks to the ability to easily absorb the vitamins and nutrients, and of course the big winner for me is its a natural weight control thanks to its high levels of moisture. Everyone pictures the same thing when they hear bulldog...wrinkly smooch face, low to the ground and FAT. I am here to help change that... bulldogs are not meant to be fat, nor is any other breed of dog...its horrible on their joints and breathing just as it is on us. Minus the ear infections and the fact Jack was born blind in one eye he has been the picture perfect healthy boy I know him to be and at 6 years old not many bulldog parents can say that. Take a look at his picture hes all muscle with a curvy little waste and we work very hard to maintain that, but with an all raw diet it has been a breeze!

I have linked one of the Raw choices here called “Primal” its made in the San Francisco Bay Area (where we are from so even a better perk for me to support local business) and it includes organic vegetables and fruits. I will tell you one thing especially after the pork version came out I would use these for all the picky eaters that would come into the store as a treat and it would be a rare dog not to want to eat it. They absolutely love primal! Jack never refused his Primal and the cats the cat version as well (Turkey and pork only because what’s a cat if not picky.) Another perk with this particular company...and quiet a few other Raw brands...if your feeding the frozen at home but want to travel with your pet, the freeze-dried is the exact same formula minus the water content...which you would have add when on the go but water is a much easier thing to find out and about then a freezer...especially camping. Please don't take my word for it...do the research click on the primal link via Amazon and look for yourself, and by all means fire any questions my way and I will do my best to answer them. I cannot talk enough about raw and all the many benefits you and your dog are about to receive!
